Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:
Try actorsaccess!.com & backstage!.com!. Those are the most legit online sources for auditions!. They do come from legit sources which stem from the LA area so they will most likely have more jobs in the LA and NY areas but both are free to check out initially so by all means do so!. Backstage you'd have to pay to see all the info in a posting if you do find something but you may be able to see enough in the free info to find the rest on your own!. AA you can set up a free account and see the auditions for free, you pay when submitting your headshot and resume electronically for an audition!. $2!.00 isn't bad considering the postage is $1!.90 or so per envelope and you wouldn't need to print a headshot!.

You can also do a search for Texas film or Dallas film and see what associans come up in your area!. Those sites sometimes have auditions listed for projects filming locally!. also, don't dismiss student films and theatre as they help you build a good resume and gain necessary experience!. Contact colleges near you with film departments!. Ask how their students cast their projects and get in on that!.

The commercials you've heard of in your area may be covered by actors with agents!. If not, you will hear about it in the classes you take from your teachers and fellow students!. Network! Once you make some connections and have a decent resume, start submitting:
